Good Morning Happy Campers! As always, we hope that you continue to do the best you can with the pandemic. Furthermore, there seems to be no end in sight and sadly the window for 2021 it looking bleaker all the time.
As the same for the last year, we do not anticipate any change anytime soon, wish we had better news. Interestingly as I opened the site today, the sight of Happy Camp brought a smile to my face. We so miss all of it, from the Wilderness, wonder, people, excitement, fresh air, smells and all that makes it Happy Camp.
Extreme drought continues on the northern prairies and almost all sloughs are dry and the ones with water have many waterfowl, but they will very soon seek out areas to nest so we continue to pray for rain all the time. Spring is slow to arrive here as well this year, temperatures struggle to stay about 20 over night and highs in the 50’s do help. Trees are starting to bud a little, but I think the drought also plays a factor.
Magoo did go swimming on Pelican Lake last night and we did find a couple pods of Bluegills sunning themselves in very shallow mud where it was warmer. It was nice to see them, soon we will get out and try to catch a few too! Western Grebe’s singing thru the woods are a beautiful sound as they sing and mate on the water’s edge.
We will update as we learn of anything, take care everyone and Happy Mother’s Day to all Mothers big and tall, short and small! Take care and keep in touch.
